Burakovsky looked spry as he slid around the rink, but the Swedish winger did not do any stickhandling or handle pucks.

Burakovsky, who got hurt in Game 2 of the first round, did not handle pucks today, tho. In addition to needing to get back his conditioning, there’s hands, timing, etc. So he’s still a bit away from returning. #Caps

With Tom Wilson suspended three games for an illegal head hit, the Capitals iced Devante Smith-Pelly on the first line Thursday. After being the team’s best line in the postseason, the trio struggled in Game Four and were dominated in shot attempts by the Penguins.
